Hi, yes that could be here, looks like maybe the tree I was looking at had her as a maiden name. Sounds promising
:-) thanks

If this is her there's an Alice Warris who died in 1964, Powell River, aged67.

Maybe she married out there, the death would them be for her married name

There are a few trees on Ancestry (no doubt blithely copied from each other) that have that death but no sources. They have no immigration details to Canada, nothing.

Strange, not sure where to go from here thanks :-)

The British Columbia Vital Statistics don't have that death.
